2012 Acura NSX Concept

Acura is bringing back the NSX super car, and this time it's a hybrid.  Unlike the previous NSX which was built strictly in specialized factories in Japan, it will be built in the United States.

Acura is hoping to put the new NSX up for sale in 2015. A convertible version of the NSX was spotted on the set of The Avengers movie with the character Tony Stark choosing this new model in favor of the Audi R8 he was seen in previous Iron Man and Iron Man 2 movies.

2012 Acura NSX concept was shown at the 2012 Detroit auto show. The main competitor for the new NSX will more than likely be the BMW i8 hybrid which is currently being developed by BMW. Another possible competitor could be the final production version of the Jaguar C-X75 hybrid which will under go more changes until it is ready for production.

The Super Bowl this year was hit with a barrage of automotive commercials, and one of them was advertising the Acura NSX. The commercial starred late night host and avid car collector Jay Leno and comedian Jerry Seinfeld as they fight over who gets the first spot on the list to get the new NSX super car in 2015. You can watch this video below.
